The Empress Eugenie.

Eugene Marie de Montjo was born in
Granada, Spain, May 5, 1926. Her
father was Spanish grandee. who was
connected with many illustrious families.
Her mother, Maria kirkpatrick Close
burn was descended from Roman Cath
olic family of Scotland which took ref
uge in Spain after the fall of the Stuarts.
Eugenie was educated in France and
England and travelled with her mother
She bore the title Of Countess of Teba
and resided much in London. 1t is said
that she met Napoleon here during his
exile for the first time but it was
not until later, when he was President
of France, and she appeared in the bril-
liant festivals of the Elysee in Paris, in
1851, that her beauty and grace per-
mancntly attracted him. They were
married Jan. 30, 1856. The Prince In
perial was born in March, 1885,, and the
prospective right of regency was con-
ferred on the Empress in 1858. She
made the court of France very brilliant
by her accomplishments and remarkable
taste in dress. When the Emperor left
Paris for the seat of war in 1870 she be-
came regent. After the fall of Sedan
she escaped to England, where her nus
band joined her and they resided until
his death.-Inter- Oceaat.

Making Paper Car Wheels.

Tho body Of the wheel only Is made Of
paper, and the material used 10 paper
Of ryo-straw, which tho company make
at their own mills. The mode Of making
the wheels Is described us follows; The
paper Is sent to the works in circular
sheets Of twenty-five to forty inches
diameter, Two men, standing by pile
OF these, rapidly brush over each sheet
an even coating of flour paste until a
dozen are pasted into layer. A third
man transfers these layers to hydraulic
press, where pressure of 400 tons or
more is applied to large pile of them,
the layers being kept distinct by
the absence of paste between the
sheets. After solidifying under this
pressure for two hours the 12-sheet
layers are kept for week In drying
room heated to 100 degrees Fahrenheit;
several of these layers are in turn pasted
together, pressed and dried for second
week, and still again these disks are past.
ed, pressed, and given third drying OF
whole month. The result is circular
block, containing from 100 to 100 sheets
of the original paper, compressed to 81 to
inches thickness, and of o solidity,
density, and weight suggesting metal
rather than fiber. The rough paper
blocks arc turned accurately in lathe,
when shavings like leather and a cloud
of yellow dust fly of, to diameter
slightly greater than the inner circle of
the tire. The hole in the center is also
made on the lathe, and after the
paper has received two coats
of paint to prevent moisture
working its way within, the cast-iron
hub is pressed through by the aid OF the
hydraulic press, and tho wroueht-iron
back plate is clanped. The smsion of
enormous hydraulic power now drives the
paper center into the tire by help of the
bevel, and the wheel is made. The adj
vantagos of these wheels filed with paper
over those OF solid iron are several

OVER THE DRAW,
Narrow Escape from Death by Falling
Through an Open Bridge


A remarkable accident and miraculous
escape from death occurred on Sunday, Nov.
eta, at the Warren bridge, CharIestown,
Mass. The gates were shut preparatory to
letting vessel pass through. One of the
bridge employees, thinking there was time to
allow a waiting buggy to pass through
opened the gates Just as the horses fore
feet touched the draw it pulled open and the
carriage with its five occupants was at once
thrown into the river Crews of vessels "
ing in the vicinity came at once to the rescue
and all were saved. 1.-The accident was the
result of "A bad practice that has been in force
here since | have been connected with the
bridge" said the man who opened the gate
Sometimes the gates are closed for several
minutes before vessel comes to the the
draw, and the people who are detained in
consequence complain bitterly at us. They
accuse us of obstructing travel by keeping
the gates closed longer than necessary.
Now, it frequently happens that team will
stand at the gate waiting TO cross the bridge.
and the gatekeeper, knowing that the draw
will not he opened for few minutes. will, as
a matter of accommodation, open the gate
and let the team cross That bad custom
has been practised hero right along, and we
have always escared without an accident
until this morning. | thought when the
carriage came up he would have plenty of
time to cross, but / made a sad mscalcule-
ton. The engineer did not know that the
gate had been opened, and when the draw
be an to move it was too late to stop the
machinery. yelled at the engineer as loud
as could, but while the machinery was in
motion in tile engine-house it was impossible
for hdn to hear a word spoken on the bridge
If am kept here any longer you can bet that
] never shall make any such mistake again y
Tie carriage was pretty well demolished
in the fall, and it hoated up the river with
the current, but the horse was saved after
being in the water one hour and a half
